You know I tried it and in the end it doesn't really work. I mean, that is not the "correct" way to format a title. You get weird stuff such as the header "Count John of County of X" instead of the usual "Count John of X". You also get random dynasties with the likes of "John of County of X" and other such nonsense.
The way was doing it was correct, I just need someone to point out why exactly the custom title isn't working.
Let me see your sample code then. I can't help you without seeing it.
